Sometime after the World Series, MLB is expected to announce a deal with a satellite radio partner - Sirius or XM - to carry thousands of games next season and beyond. Sirius, which has NFL, NBA and NHL rights and carried some major-league games on its ESPN channel, had some preliminary talks with baseball about a year ago. There was an internal dispute over which baseball entity - the broadcast division or the new media side - controlled the satellite rights. Now, baseball owners are expected to separate the broadcast and satellite rights and accept the most lucrative offer, from either Sirius - which signed Howard Stern last week - or XM, which has four times as many subscribers. For displaced fans, the ability to tune in out-of-market broadcasts in the car or SUV in the summer should have tremendous appeal.

That's awesome. All MLB playoff games that are being carried by Fox are also broadcasted on ESPN Radio which is on XM.

This may just be compelling enough for me to get one of these babys for Christmas. Depends on which service. I personally hope it is XM and that they put it on the basic service...but these type of things never seem to work out for me.

My dad has a Sirius in his car and it's pretty gangsta. Get most NBA games, all NFL games (with two feeds per game), and commercial free everything - weather, news, BBC, music, music, just everything.

F***ing sweet!

I hope it's Sirius.. i might get it when howard switches
